Chapter 40—King of East Asia (2)
The next day, Hu Kai's arrival did not attract everyone's attention, the sparse applause made Hu Kai in front of everyone a little embarrassed, this kind of treatment is still insufficient compared to the three of them when they first joined the team, the reason is to put it bluntly Hu Kai and these people are not all the way, Li Xianfeng They are all from the provincial team to the national team, and Hu Kai is from the university straight into the national team.
Of course, not everyone is indifferent, at least Zhang Jiakai is very interested in Hu Kai, who is still wearing glasses when he runs, but based on everyone's atmosphere, he didn't ask Hu Kai, and could only ask Li Xianfeng next to him, "Xianfeng, why does this guy run with glasses?" ”
"Maybe I'm afraid of falling."
On April 11, the cherry blossoms are blooming, the spring is strong, and many passengers who rushed to Dongying with a happy mood to enjoy the annual beauty, China Airlines' international flight, the hearts of the Chinese athletes are not easy at all, a large team of hundreds of athletes, from the time of the plane when the atmosphere is a little dull, may be this time of sprint preparation caused by the physical and mental exhaustion of everyone, or for the upcoming competition in the results of some expectations, In short, the atmosphere on the plane was nowhere near as lively as the last time a group of young people participated in the World Junior Championships.
"Li Xianfeng! You're there too! A crisp and pleasant voice came from the back of Li Xianfeng's head, and the owner of the voice was the energetic Zhao Xixi.
"Yes, we have a lot of places on the team, so I'm here too!" Li Xianfeng replied with a smile, since the last World Youth Championships, in addition to a few accidental encounters for more than half a year, the two smiled and nodded to show surprise, and they had no intersection, thinking about making friends, and gradually extinguished because of the pressure of training, but I didn't expect it to be so coincidental this time, the sprint team and the pole vault team on the flight actually sat very close.
"Hey, great! It's about to take off, so we'll talk in a moment! Zhao Xixi stuck out his tongue after speaking, and walked back to his seat quickly, while Zhang Jiakai and Cheng Xiang beside him were frowning at Li Xianfeng, as if to say when did you meet a beautiful woman.
"The trip doesn't look too boring." The corners of Li Xianfeng's mouth couldn't help but tilt slightly.
"Everyone knows that in East Asia, only the Toei team has the strength to compete with us, and this time the Toei team did not have their number one big player on the men's 100m list, but sent young people led by Naoki Tsukahara to participate." As soon as he arrived at the hotel to get the list of participants, Liu Bin saw that there was no name of Shen Wu on the list of participants of the Dongying team, and immediately held a meeting and told everyone the news.
"That's good news." Even the first brother Chen Haijian couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard the good news, because the strength of Shingo was too strong, and he won the bronze medal at the 2003 World Championships.
"Although Shingo did not participate in the competition, everyone should not take it lightly, and the strength of the Toei team is also obvious to all, Naoki Tsukahara and Komatsu Takahashi have both run in 10.20 seconds this year."
"Is the strength of this Dongying team so strong?" Hearing Liu Bin's introduction, Li Xianfeng felt for the first time that the strength of the Dongying team was so strong, not only did he continue to win the bronze medal in the World Championships, but the rest of them all had the strength to hit the Olympic A standard or even the second round, which was different from when it was completely suppressed by the Huaguo track and field team later, and the current Dongying team is really a strong opponent of the Huaguo team.
"Okay, let's go back and rest, I'll send everyone's game schedule to the coach, and the coach will tell you when the time comes." In the end, Liu Bin did not put pressure on everyone's performance, but just announced the dismissal of the meeting with a wave of his hand.
"Coach Hirota, why won't I be allowed to participate in this East Asian Games?" As the first brother of the Dongying sprint team, he has his own complete team, except for the training of the sprint team relay, he usually receives professional training in the United States, and he was going to return to China to compete, but he suddenly learned that there was no name of his own on the list this time, and he was a little annoyed.
"Don't be angry." Coach Hirota didn't dare to anger him in the face of this Dongying team, so he could only carefully persuade him, "We listened to your personal doctor William, your Achilles tendon is a little overtired, and it is not recommended that you participate in a big competition before the Olympics, otherwise you will be prone to injury." ”
"I know that, but this East Asian Games is being held in Osaka! Without my words...... "Shingo also knew that the American training he had just ended was a bit of a burden on his body and needed to be adjusted, but he couldn't participate in the competition in his hometown, which still made him unwilling, and he didn't have the No. 1 Asian self, if he lost the gold medal in the men's 100m in front of the audience of Dongying, it would be a shame for Dongying to sprint.
"Shen Wujun, you have to believe in your teammates, within the scope of East Asia, there is no team that can compare with our Dongying team, you can rest in peace, I am still waiting for Shen Wujun to lead our Dongying team to make a breakthrough in Athens!"
"Okay, Coach Hirota, I see." He put down the phone unwillingly, and he always felt that something would happen when he was far away in the United States.
"The grouping of the Dongying team is really interesting, a Dongying athlete is paired with a Chinese athlete, and they are all slightly superior in their historical results, it seems that this is going to hit our confidence in the preliminaries." Coach Yuan took the match sheet and sighed that the little devil really has a lot of eyes.
"So what? They don't think I haven't made progress in more than half a year, right? Li Xianfeng replied disapprerovingly.
"They really didn't underestimate you, and you were in a group of Takahashi Komatsu, the second-ranked player of the Toei team this time, this guy's best time was 10.18 seconds, and he also ran to 10.20 seconds many times this year, and his strength is much stronger than you." Coach Yuan pointed to Takahashi Komatsu's name and said lightly.
"This Dongying team really values me!?" Li Xianfeng didn't expect that he was actually ranked second to Chen Haijian and was the second target of the Dongying team, speaking of which, this is still because of the reason of Tufei Juner, originally Chun Er was Dongying's future sprint hope, but he was affected by Li Xianfeng, and he didn't want to practice sprinting well, so he had to go to Huaguo to see, can the Dongying team not hate him to the bone?
"By the way, coach, are there any athletes in other countries that need attention?"
"There is no more in East Asia, in fact, the sprinting in East Asia has always been only us and Dongying in competition, our national system and Dongying's national quality training have always been equal in the field of sprinting, and other countries cannot compete with us." Coach Yuan explained.
"Then as long as I complete six kills against Dongying's athletes, won't I be able to unlock the achievement of the East Asian champion?"
